RCPT-TSB-001

Co-author and pass Respect for Marriage Act.

Promise #1
CategoryLGBTQ+ Rights

Read the full case study
The Respect for Marriage Act was a Baldwin priority across her Senate tenure. After Justice Thomas's Dobbs concurrence (June 2022) questioned the precedential basis for Obergefell v. Hodges, Baldwin and Collins led bipartisan negotiations on a federal codification. The bill repeals the Defense of Marriage Act (1996) and requires federal recognition of any marriage valid in the state where it was performed. It also protects interracial marriage from any future overturning of Loving v. Virginia. Passed 61-36 in the Senate with 12 Republicans joining all Democrats. House voted 258-169-1. Biden signed at a White House ceremony December 13, 2022.
